 Hi Everyone,

It is amazing to think that we are now heading in to our final week of the school year!  It's been a challenging year that has required perseverance and flexibility from your children and they really have risen to this challenge!  

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*Please notify me if your child will not be attending school any days next week.  We will be doing activities for our Memory Books all week and they will be going home on Friday.  

*Please send a labeled bag to school with your child next week.  I am hoping to send home most of their supplies on Wednesday.

*I will be sending home the Poetry & More duotangs with the last poem this Friday.  This duotang can remain at home for summer reading practice.  Thank you!  The green 'Growthfolio' can also stay at home.

*Please check your homes for any classroom/school books.  Thank you!

*Monday is National Indigenous Day.  Our class will be joining in on parts of a Zoom meeting dedicated to this day.

 Hi Everyone,

I hope you are all well.  June is here, so while there won't be as many activities as in normal years, there are some upcoming events worth noting.

June 22- PAC Ice cream/Yogurt treat (free as the PAC has paid for this). Orders have been placed.

June 23-Yard in the Card 7:30-3:30 (Photos can be taken by families in front of the school during this time.  Please maintain social distancing). More details will be coming from Jenn Gallop via the Monday newsletter.

June 24-Year End Class Celebration. Thank you to the following people for sending in snacks.  Please send in pre-wrapped snacks by Tuesday, June 22nd.  The party will be the afternoon of June 24th.

*Leland (individual bags of chips)

*Holden  (fruit snacks)

*Vivian (pre-wrapped sweet treat)

*Kinsley (juice boxes)

June 25th-Last day for students 

*Please ensure that your child is dressed for some outdoor activities (shorts should be worn under dresses/skirts and shoes should be appropriate for activity-no flip flops, please)

*Just a reminder that we are a 'West coast Recess' district which means we are outside every recess/lunch (rain or shine).  Please ensure that your child has appropriate clothes for outside, as well as shoes that allow them to be active every day.  

*Our Scientist of the Day is now complete.  I was very impressed by how well prepared the students were for their day and the fact that I had never seen several of the experiments.  Everyone did a great job!

*Class photos were sent home Monday.  They are in the front pouch of your child's planner.

*Public library cards were sent home on Tuesday with those who sent the order form.  If you did not get a card but would like to, the library is open to families and you may apply for a library card in person.

*We had our virtual field trip to the public library on Wednesday (they aren't open to groups yet).  We were all very excited to hear about all of the great books (and other interesting items) that are available for borrowing at the library.  Please check out their summer reading program!

*Your child's self assessment is coming home today.  The remainder of the report will be released online.

*Summer birthdays will be celebrated over the next couple of weeks (in case you are wondering why your child is wearing a birthday bracelet/sticker :))

Have a great weekend,

Amanda Roberts
